The thought that some people are granted a status that
allows them to supersede the rights of others should be appalling. Though
the founding documents make clear that our forefathers were not egalitarians,
the thought that all men were not equal under the law would have shocked and
angered them. However, when we get to certain topics and situations, we
find that our legal system has failed to prove adequate. And Obama's
recent speech will help us to illustrate what I mean.

As Pope Francis flew back to Rome, President Obama issued
a stern warning to Christians, warning them their attempts to assert their
religious liberty to oppose gay rights would fail.

"We affirm that we cherish our religious freedom and
are profoundly respectful of religious traditions," he insisted during a
dramatic speech at a LGTB fundraiser in New York City on Sunday night, praising
the progress made on gay rights under his administration. "But we also
have to say clearly that our religious freedom doesn't grant us the freedom to
deny our fellow Americans their constitutional rights."

The first thing that we must notice is that though the
President seems to have a "profound respect" for religious tradition,
he has no intentions of defending those freedoms or traditions. I can say
that by what he says next. He says that this freedom granted by our
religious freedom only goes so far.

What Obama is doing is giving us double talk. First,
he tells us how much he cares about something, and how important it is that we
maintain this freedom. But, if it gets in the way of something someone
else wishes to do, then it has gone too far. Remember, freedom of
religion is a Constitutional Right.

In fact, anyone who listened in sixth grade civics class
could easily refute what the President said. There is actually a place
where I can take Obama and prove that what he has said is wrong. I can
take him to the First Amendment which clearly refutes what he has said.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

So, where does this so-called brilliant constitutional lawyer
go to back up his argument?

As for Article III, one
has to understand that the President's interpretation was not put into play
until 1803. In Marbury v. Madison, a Supreme Court decided that the
Article meant that the Supreme Court has the final say in interpreting the
Constitution. How convenient. But, Obama's supposed hero, Abraham
Lincoln rejected this and ignored the Dread Scott ruling when it came to
slaves.

And the 14th Amendment simply
says that all people born in America are citizens and that all citizens shall
have the same protection under the law. Now, either Obama is seeking to
frame this in a good light to make this a racial type issue or he is just plain
ignorant to the problem at hand.

You see, no one is saying that sodomites should not be able
to do the same things that others do, but that when they claim that they are
marrying, they really are not. So, it is just this simple. The
Supreme Court has not the right or power to pass judgement on this issue.
However, even if they did, the Constitution fails to mention marriage.
Being that it is not defined, the Court has chosen to define an institution
opposite from what it has been defined, by everyone, for thousands of years.

This has place the sodomite above the Christian and
Jew. Both groups claims that the practice of sodomy is a sin. Both
condemn the practice as something worthy of death, and this idea of Law has
been made arbitrary by the Church. This is why we must return to the Law of God.

The president thinks that because a clerk refuses to break
state law to obey a pretended authority, we should have our rights revoked as
less equal than that of the sodomite.

The Christian's right to freedom of religion has been set
aside for the sexual preference of the homosexual. So much for equal
rights under the law.

"This is the real task before us: to reassert our commitment as a nation to a law higher than our own, to renew our spiritual strength. Only by building a wall of such spiritual resolve can we, as a free people, hope to protect our own heritage and make it someday the birthright of all men." --Ronald Reagan

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse. A man who has nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety is a miserable creature who has no chance at being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."John Stuart Mill

“A nation that substitutes emotion and empathy for rational thought will eventually digress into the Dark Ages,”Congressman Steve King (R-IA),

INTEGRITY: The highest courage is to dare to be ourself in the face of adversity. Choosing ethics over convenience and truth over popularity means there is never a wrong time to do the right thing.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.

The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

They may be more likely to go to Heaven for good intentions yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.~ C. S. Lewis
